I think it's too early to say how this will affect FlightGear other than we
are being mentioned among the remaining players in the market. Also, I
don't believe MSFS will simply end, but it remains to be seen in what form
it re-emerges and where and how.
That said, we should be prepared for a lot of new folks at least coming and
taking a quick look at what we are doing over here, so when new faces show
up, please be welcoming and patient with them! Some might even know a few
things about flight sim development but not be familiar with our "culture",
so again, let's be patient and welcoming. FlightGear should be a place that
welcomes new thought and new ideas and new faces that are certain to stretch
and expand our culture.
Best regards,
Curt.
